Hi Darrell & All,
    This is an interesting new twist on a old idea. The hydroquinone =
electrode, long before the superior Calomel and Glass electrode pair =
came along, was used to measure pH. Their battery presumably has quinone =
on one side and hydroquinone on the other.=20
    This sounds good for small scale storage but surely potential energy =
(water pumped to high elevations or from deep reservoirs) is the better =
battery for large-scale energy storage.=20
Yt, DW
